Description

A seven-item, six-point Likert self-report scale adapted from established stereotype-threat measures to assess secondary students' chronic stereotype-threat experiences in academic settings.

Components

  • Chronic Stereotype Threat Scale (seven items): A seven-item scale adapted from Steele and Aronson (1995, Experiment 4) and the Stereotype Vulnerability Scale. It includes two items on being judged by other students, two items on risk of being stereotypically judged by teachers, and three items on generalized stereotype threat. The article reports "The reliability of the scale was high (Cronbach's α = 0.89)" and confirmatory factor analysis indicated the scale was unidimensional. (Bedyńska S et al. (2018))
